20 Sep 2017 - Terrorist use of the internet to incite, inspire and direct terrorist and violent extremist acts is one of the most pressing issues that the global community currently faces. Working with international partners, industry and law enforcement, we need to make the online space a hostile environment for terrorists to operate and prevent the dissemination of terrorist and violent extremist propaganda online. A fundamental shift in the scale and nature of our response is required to match the evolving and cross-border nature of terrorists' use of the internet. This requires a global response – governments, multilateral bodies, Social Media Companies, and civil society all have a role to play.
